The data cannot be modeled by a linear equation because the rate of change is not constant. This can be seen in the fact that when you increase x from 1 to 2, you subtract 3 from the y-values. However, as you add 2 more, you continue to subtract 3 from the y-values. If the function were a linear function, we would likely subtract 6 from the y-values, since that would form a constant ratio.

You can even look at the fact that as we increased the x by 4, we continued to decrease the y by 3. This does not form a constant ratio, and is thus the data could not be modeled by a linear function.

Which of the following expressions is equal to the total investment of a no-load mutual fund?

KatRina [158]

If someone puts no job or social services on their rental application and yet they pay rent on time each month … they’re probably doing something illegal. Here in SoCal, if all they offer are 1099s as a “music producer” or other vague free lance type job, they might be dealers and you as the landlord are held to know that.

Answer:

The confidence level interval is $0.016 \le C \le 0.404$

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample size is $n = 20$

The number planning to increase workforce is $x = 3$

The confidence level is $c = 98$ %

The value of proportion for a plus 4 method is

$p = \frac{x+2}{n+4}$

substituting values

$p = \frac{3+2}{20+4}$

$p =0.21$

The z-critical value at confidence level of 98% is

$z_{c}=z_{0.98} = 2.33$

This values is obtained from the standard normal table

The confidence level interval can be mathematically represented as

$C =p \ \pm z_{c} * \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n+4} }$

substituting values

$C = 0.21 \pm 2.33 * \sqrt{\frac{0.21(1- 0.21)}{20 +4} }$

$C = 0.21 \pm 0.194$

=> $0.016 \le C \le 0.404$

Water boils at sea level at 100°C. The boiling point of water decreases about 5°C for every mile above sea level. Santa Fe, New

KIM [24]

First lets convert feet to miles: if 1 mi = 5280 feet then 7200 feet / 5280 feet = 1.364 miles. Now we need to see how much degrees does the boiling point for water decreases: if 1 mile = 5 degrees Celsius, then 0.364 miles correspond to 0.364*5=1.82 degrees Celsius. So now we add the two values: 5+1.82 = 6.82 degrees Celsius. Now we find the decrease in the boiling point of water: 100-6.82 = 93.18 degrees Celsius. So at 7200 feet above sea level, in Santa Fe, the water boils at 93.18 degrees Celsius.

If the manufacturer gains 6 %, the wholesale dealer 8% and the retailer 10 %. Then what

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

The production cost is Rs 12,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the production cost be $x

At any point in time

sales price = cost price +( profit percentage* cost price)

Manufacturer gaining 6%

That would be;

x + 6% of x

x + 0.06x

= 1.06x

Wholesaler gaining 8%

= 1.06x + 8% of 1.06x

1.06x + 0.08(1.06x)

= 1.06x + 0.0848x

= 1.1448x

The for the retailer

= 1.1448x + 10% of 1.1448x

= 1.1448x + 0.11448x

= 1.25928x

1.25928x = 15,741

x = 15,741/1.25928

x = 12,500
